"Listen to me!"

"Let me go!"

He rips his wrist out of my hand.

"Can't you just leave me alone?!"
"No! Why won't you listen?!"

"Because if I listen I'll forgive you!"

He shouts. The second the words come out it's quiet. He avoids my gaze as he breathes in and out.

"What?"

I whisper. He shakes his head.

"I hate you..."

He replies quietly.

"No you don't."

"I should hate you."

"Keith-"

He raises his fist and swings. Before it can connect I reach out and grab his wrist.

"Please..."

I plead.

"No."

His voice is stern yet broken.

"I don't want to."

He raises his other fist and and hits me lightly in the chest.

"I want to hate you."

I grab hold of that wrist too and he collapses against my chest.

"All I want to do is hate you but all I can do is hate myself for not forgiving you."

"Don't hate yourself."

"Then who?"

He murmurs.

"Who am I supposed to hate?"

"Me. You should hate me but I know you don't. "

I wrap my arms around him and we sink to the floor.

"Please just listen to me Keith. That's all I ask."

"I don't want to forgive you."

"I know."

"If you talk I will."

"I'm sorry but you need to know."

He shakes his head against my chest and breathes in.

"Okay."

He exhales.

"Just don't move."

Before I can question why his arms wrap around me and he clings to me. I move into a more comfortable position and hold him in my lap.

"I love you."

I whisper.

"I know you do."

The next words are faint but I still manage to hear them.

"I love you too."
